    I iron, but I only have one basket full, I only iron certain things, DH's work and "going out" clothes, slacks, polos, shirts, then dresses, tops, pants etc for the girls, things that are made of cotton that are creased, with the exception of t-shirts, which the creases can be smoothed out when folded.

    And I iron a lot when i am sewing, I have found that I can do a lot of avoiving pinning if I iron and my sewing comes out a lot better

    I iron a couple of times a week. I use a lot of natural fabrics so I can't seem to get away with not ironing them!

    i'm sorry about your SIL

    i don't iron. well, i iron if i absolutely have to - tops or shirts for special occasions. DP doesn't wear shirts for work, so that's lucky & now that i'm a SAHM i don't have shirts to iron anymore either. i used to be good & iron for the week (probably cos that's what my mum always did as i was growing up - and still does i think) but got slack as the years went on. i really do not enjoy ironing & i'm terrible at it!
